My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Chapter 502

Eunice was dumbfounded for a moment as she glanced at Freya who had a delicate smile on her face.

She was at a loss for what to do.

Freya's lips curled up into a grin. "Mr. Reid, does this mean that we're friends now?"

Aaron raised his eyebrows and a hint of villainous aura made its way to his handsome face. "The more

friends you have, the more options you have in your life."

Freya burst into laughter. "Alright, it's settled then. Great." She set her eyes on Eunice. "Mr. Reid has

already spoken. Aren't you going to ride on his coattails?"

Eunice was startled. She promptly glimpsed at Aaron and said, "Thank you for saving my life, Mr.

Reid."

Aaron was at a loss for words. "Come on, don't be so serious."

While speaking, Aaron raised his hand and peered at his watch. He gazed at Eunice and asked, "Did

you bring your phone with you?"

Eunice nodded and took out her phone in an instant.

Aaron took her phone and typed a series of numbers into it. Then, he returned the phone to Eunice and

told her, "Call this number tomorrow and tell him that Aaron Reid asked you to look for him."

Eunice took then took her phone back and peeked at Aaron, her face a blushed red.

Freya lifted her brows and pointed out, "Mr. Reid, why don't you give her your phone number directly

and ask her to look for you if she has any issues. Since you saved her life, she should devote herself to

you."

Aaron furrowed his brows in displeasure. He glanced at Freya, but didn't say anything. Instead, he

directed his gaze at me and asked, "Are you sleepy?"

I nodded. I was indeed feeling somewhat tired. After drinking just now, I started feeling a little dizzy.

He stretched out his hand and tugged at me. He stared unemotionally at Freya and stated, "It's getting

late, well take our leave."

Freya raised her eyebrows as she looked at me. "Miss Reid, since we're friends now, would you mind

sharing your phone number with me? It'll be more convenient for us to contact each other in future!"

I was surprised for a moment before handing her my phone. She typed in a series of numbers. Then,

she gazed at me and said with a grin, "We should reach out to each other more often in future!"

When Aaron and I exited the Emperor Club, it was already three in the morning.

When I returned to the villa, Hendrix still hadn't come back - just as I thought.

I was so exhausted that I couldn't spend a second longer thinking about it. I just laid down in bed and

fell asleep.

The next day.

When Ian called, I was still in my slumber, dreaming away. The ringing sound from my phone woke me

up and an instant headache rained down on my head.

After I picked up the phone, Ian asked, "Were you the one who did that to Valerie?" His tone was harsh.

Although I was in a daze, I could hear him speaking out of anger.

"Yes!" I shifted my position, feeling very physically uncomfortable. Perhaps I didn't sleep enough.

He sighed, "Arianna, if you can't get past the grudges in your heart, nothing you do will be productivenovelbin

for you. Promise me that you'll stop doing such things in the future. Don't turn yourself into a person

who you hate."

I raised my hand and pinched between my eyebrows. I was wide- awake, but fatigue still laced my

bones. "Ian, I've already become a person who I hate."

I didn't even realized when I had started to change.

He went silent for a while before saying, "Let's go back to Ucrebury. Anne and I will be there. Things

will be better in the future!"

I felt the tears forming behind my eyes. I nodded and agreed in a choked voice, "Okay!"

"Judging by your voice, I guess you're still in bed. When will you go back to Ucrebury? I'll come pick

you up with Anne!"

"I think I'll return in a few days. It's going to be the New Year soon. I have to settle things here first

before going back."

"Alright then!"

After ending our call, I stared up at the ceiling in a daze. I then made my way downstairs once I got

cleaned up.

Minnie had already gotten breakfast ready when she saw me coming down. She took a look at me and

asked, "Didn't you sleep well last night? Why do you look so haggard?"

I yawned and nodded. "Minnie, when are you going back to Ucrebury?"
